Symantec Intelligence Report: September 2013

Symantec have published their Intelligence report that sums up the latest threat trends for September 2013.

Report highlights:
- While no largely new target attack techniques have appeared so far in 2013, attackers continue to hone current techniques for maximum impact
- In particular, an attack group called Hidden Lynx is responsible for some of the more brazen attacks this year (as discussed in a Q&A session with one of Symantec Analysts)
- The average number of targeted attacks per day is down when compared to the same period in 2012, but up 13 percent overall when looking back at attack trends since 2011

The report (in PDF format) can be viewed here.
